Something neat with NFL 2k3 Xbox (1 Viewer)

[Brian Johnson]

So last night I stayed home (since I have to work early Saturday morning) and I was playing NFL 2k3 for the Xbox.
I was suprised to hear the game say "Happy Halloween, Welcome to tonights game" blahblah.
I thought cool the game knows what day it is & they actually took the time to put it in the game.
Big changes from Pong
Next we'll see if it knows Thanksgiving =)

Some games have been doing this for years. Madden on PS2 does it, I believe. You can go in and change the date/time on your console settings and see what it does for Thanksgiving and Christmas, etc...

I wonder if it has some of the lesser known holidays.

Also, what would happen if you set your console's date to the date of a previous superbowl... would it say something then?
